this belief because they have 
read of the declining farm 
population, lower farm prices 
and vast farm surpluses—but 
this is not by any means the 
complete picture. 

Agriculture has come a long 
way from the day when the 
one horse breaking ploy was 
symbol of modern day farm¬ 
ing. Through today's advanc- 
E-d technical research and 
leadership, the once common 
mule has almost vanihed from 
the American farm scene. 

It is true the farm popula¬ 
tion is declining. This is due 
to the ‘weeding out" of farm 
people who do not take ad¬ 
vantage of their opportunities. 
It also includes those who are 
not willing to change their 
farming operations to com¬ 
pete in today’s highly com- 
i petitive farm business. 

Soil scientists and agricul¬ 
tural economists predict that 
the I'nited States will not 
ha\c a problEMii of farm sur¬ 
plus by 1970 With the rapid 
increase in population, the 
prolilem will be whether the 
farmer can produce enough to 
fE'cd our eounlry's population. 
This grave problem will be 
comforting us unless there are 
enough trained people to fill 
the vacancies now open and 
EMiough people to enter into 
new fields of agriculture. 

From where will these qual- 
ifiE’d people come'’ Naturally 
from agricultural colleges. To¬ 
day there are two jobs avail¬ 
able for each agricultural 
graduate. If agriculture is to 
hold its rightful place in the 
economy of our country, these 
positions will have to be filled. 

The jobs that are waiting 
are in wide and varied fields. 
Some of these specialized 
fiE’lds include; agronomy, ani¬ 
mal husbandry, economics, en¬ 
gineering. journalism, dairy¬ 
ing and others. Specialists in 
the.se areas will determine to 
a great extent the technical 
advancement of agriculture. 

The number of farmers is 
declining but the population 
in agriculture related fields is 
increasing Courses in general 
agriculture such as the ones 
offerE'd here a t CTMB give 
people an excellent back- 
groiiiiil i n seeking employ- 
niE'iit in any of these related 
field.s.

radical changes in the past

$15,001) for the industrial 
wnrkiT SoniE* lop agricultur¬ 
al salaries are in the $40,000 
to $.5().0(M) iiU'OMH' bracket. 

So you .sec, agriculture is 
nut a Eh'cliniiig business. The 
pro.sperity that we now enjoy 
IS basE'd on a healthy agricul¬ 
tural E'eonomy 'The America 
of tomorrow will depend on 
the future of agriculture.

Co-op Engineers 
Gain Experience 

By ROBERT H. HICKS 
The purpose of the co-op 
program is to give college en¬ 
gineering students experience 
at working in industry and it 
is open to all students regard¬ 
less of their chosen engineer¬ 
ing fields with the exception 
of the agricultural engineer¬ 
ing students. 

With regard to their chosen 
fields students are placed at

different companies which 
w'ork with the school in mak¬ 
ing this program possible. 
Once placed on the program a 
student alternates successive¬ 
ly between school and work 
and in all works a total of sev¬ 
en quarters. He may work 
spring and fall or summer and 
winter. 

To qualify for the program 
a student must first earn 
scholastic average for the first 
two quarters of not less than 
2.75 which is a high C, C be¬ 
ing 2.00 and B being 3.00. 
And for the remainder of his 
college work he must main¬ 
tain a 2.50 average. 

The experience gained by a 
student from this program is 
a very valuable asset. In in¬ 
dustry the student gets a 
chance t o put theory into 
practical use. Usually after 
each work period a student is 
rotated to a different depart- 
ment within his company thus 
gaining experience in several 
different kinds of work in his 
field of engineering while at 
the same time getting acquain¬ 
ted with the organizational 
structure of the company. As 
? result of this rotation a stu¬ 
dent can better choose be¬ 
tween the phases of engineer¬ 
ing within his own field into 
which he wishes to enter aft¬ 
er his formal education. 

Wages are good, usually 
starting at around seventy to 
eighty dollars a week, and are 
raised for each successive 
work period. With thrift a 
student can pay his way 
through college and at its 
completion he is almost quar- 
anteed the opportunity to 
work full time with the com¬ 
pany with which he cooped, 
but he is not necessarily obli¬ 
gated to do so.

By DAVID HOLLADAY 

A noted German statesman 
once said, “The future of em¬ 
pires depends on the educa¬ 
tion of youth.” We of the 
engineering brotherhood hold 
the belief that our field is one 
of the most educational and 
important that can be engag¬ 
ed in. I fervently recommend 
tha ta person should not ent¬ 
er the engineering field sole¬ 
ly for material gain. The 
roughness of the curriculum 
soon does away with those 
who enter engineering be¬ 
cause of publicity they may 
have read about its financial 
attractiveness. 

The number one prerequi¬ 
site of an aspirant engineer is 
mathematical ability. Don’t 
enter engineering unless you 
like math and can handle it 
fairly well. As engineering is 
the foundation of the modem 
world, math is the foundation > 
of engineering. What should 
you do in high school in prep¬ 
aration for college work in en 
gineering? In the first place 
have a good time because 
when you enter college, there 
will be a dire shortage of free 
time. But seriously, it is very 
important to learn “how to 
study” in high school, because 
when you get to college, it is 
too late to learn how. If you 
can’t do the work here, there 
is someone behind you who 
can and is itching to try. 

The math you encounter in 
engineering will be in differ¬ 
ent forms and used in differ¬ 
ent applications. There are 
many other forms of know¬ 
ledge to learn in engineering 
but math is basically the cen¬ 
ter piece. The pure mathe¬ 
matical courses are built cen¬ 
trally around the calculus as 
an engineering tool. These 
courses are fairly difficult 
and must be studied regularly 
to achieve best results. Some 
other freshman courses are 
English, mechanical drawing, 
chemistry. These all require 
regular study, and all except 
English entail mathematical 
work. 

With no mincing of words, 
the first year contains lots of 
work. You are in class nearly 
every hour from 8 to 5 dur- 



Club Presents 
Fashion Show 

A fashion show was presen¬ 
ted at the Home Economics 
Club meeting last night by 
members o f Textiles and 
Clothing 121 and Home Eco^ 
nomics 451 classes. 

Martha Taylor, senior i n 
home economics, was narra¬ 
tor for the show. She wore a 
smart, brown, wool plaid 
dress that she had made. It 
was accented by a wide roll 
collar and soft box pleats. 

The dresses modeled were 
made from Simplicity, McCall 
and Vogue patterns. There 
were many combinations o f 
designs and fabrics to make 
a pleasing attire for any oc¬ 
casion. 


Miss Armstrong To 
Attend Meetings 

Miss Mary R. Armstrong, 
head of the UTMB Home Eco¬ 
nomics Department, will b e

ing regular class week. Satur¬ 
day classes, if they can be 
scheduled, will lighten the 
load. But if you can make it 
this first year, successive 
years will bring fewer class¬ 
room hours although the cour¬ 
ses become progressively 
harder. However, this diffi¬ 
culty 0 f courses is alleviated 
partly by one’s growing inter¬ 
est, for in the last two years 
especially you will be study¬ 
ing in your chosen field. 

Yes, it is hard. If you will 
listen to engineering students 
talking, you’ll hear such ideas 
as: “If only there were one 
more day in the week,” and 
“What I need is a thirty-hour 
day.” 

'There will be mornings at 
3 a.m. when, with eyelids 
propped open over bloodshot 
eyes, you’ll wish you had nev- 
heard of engineering. 
Those things that are of most 
value i n life require hard 
work. Engineering is a chal¬ 
lenging field, demanding the 
best of its people but return¬ 
ing material, reward and giv¬ 
ing heartfelt satisfaction to 
one who does his job well. 


C. Cooper Named 
BSU'er Of Month 


('arllan Cooper was named 
BSU’er of the Month” for the 
month of December a t the 
Midyear Retreat. Carlton was 
given this award because of 
his outstanding work as evan 
gelism chairman on the exe¬ 
cutive council and for h i s 
faithfulness to all BSU activi 
lies. 

Carlton is a sophomore in 
engineering and is from Mem 
phis, Tennessee. 

Mr. Nathan Porter from the 
personnel department of the 
F'oreign Mission Board and 
Mr. Charles Roselle, state stu¬ 
dent secretary, will be our 
guest on our campus the 18th 
and 19th Mr. Porter will 
speak at Vespers Wednesday 
at 6:30 and at noonday o n 
Thursday. Conferences are 
being arranged with Mr. Por 
ter for mission volunteers. 

“Tis our Lord’s Command” 
was the theme of the Midyear 
Retreat held January 7 at 
Paris Landing Inn. The BSU 
Manuel Study was taught by 
Mr. Joe Crumpacker, BSU Di¬ 
rector a t Tennessee Tech, 
Cookeville. This study prov¬ 
ed very inspiring as well as 
informational to the approxi¬ 
mately 40 who attended. 

The last session was high¬ 
lighted by inspirational mess¬ 
ages by Dr. Ted Clements and 
Rev. James Moore. 

Central Baptist Church was 
the setting January 8 for the 
installation of the Freshman 
Coun^l. Miss Clarice Thom¬ 
ason presided over this very 
impressive ceremony using 
‘The Entrusted Letter” as the 
theme. Each executive coun¬

Jap Student Says 
Few Study Peace 

Japanese Hiroki Sakamoto, 
writing in the Knox College 
STUDENT, Galesburg, Ill., 
comments, “It is very sad to 
know that few of you seem 
to have ever seriously consid¬ 
ered about peace . . . Total 
disarmament and the estab¬ 
lishment of the world govern¬ 
ment i s now a question of 
time. If you take the lead in 
this movement, the prestige 
of your country will go up 
without problem. 

“If you continue to try to 
take a lead in the arms race, 
then you will be losing friends 
everywhere in the world. 

The problems are whether we 
really believe in peace or not; 
whether we want peace or the 
continued arms race; how we, 
students, can contribute to 
this great cause. In short, we 
are now facing the problem 
‘peace or war,’ and not ‘war 
and peace.’ ”

Music, which ranged any¬

from Corinth, Mississippi. The 
Pi Kappa dream girl, Elaine

years are incorporated those 
' courses essential to the de-

' cation that makes him an in-

self and of fields beyond the 
scope of medicine the science. I 
Actually, this* period of pre-! 
paration in liberal arts en¬ 
ables him to put the art of 
practicing medicine into the j 
science of medicine. In addi-' 
tion to basic science courses I 
like chemistry, physics, biolo-1 
gy, zoology, and bacteriolo^, | 
he becomes acquainted with I 
literature, philosophy, psy-, 
chology, music, history, eco-' 
nomics, poltical science, so- j 
ciology, and a host of other 
fields. This broadening of his 
education is necessary, for he 
cannot be a doctor and noth¬ 
ing more. As a doctor, he is 
recognized as one of the most 
outstanding members of his 
community, and as such, he 
must be prepared to partici¬ 
pate civieally and culturally , 
as well as medically. 

I Along with this broadening | 
of his education, the prospec- j 
live doctor matures. A college j 
freshman, pre-medical or oth- ( 
erwisc, is seldom emotionally j 
mature enough to realize the i 
enormity and the seriousness 
of the task which he has un- i 
dertaken. However, after three t

plctely applying himself to t
